Pre & Post Repair NDT

 The Pull Out Test is a reliable method to assess the in-situ compressive strength of concrete, especially when core samples aren’t feasible or sufficient. By applying controlled force to an embedded insert, we get a clear picture of the concrete’s load-bearing capacity.

This test is especially useful during pre-repair assessments to determine deterioration levels and post-repair checks to confirm the quality of rehabilitation.

The Concrete Core Test is one of the most definitive ways to evaluate the actual compressive strength of hardened concrete. We extract core samples from the structure and test them under controlled lab conditions to get precise data.

Whether you’re planning major rehabilitation or validating the performance of past repairs, this test provides clarity that desk calculations alone can’t match.

A Cover Meter test helps us detect rebars and their depth of cover beneath the concrete surface—without any cutting or damage. This is crucial before drilling, coring, or any repair work to avoid hitting reinforcement.

It’s a small step that helps prevent big mistakes – saving time, cost, and structural complications down the line.

Corrosion begins silently and spreads invisibly—until it causes cracking and spalling. The Half Cell Potential test helps detect corrosion activity in reinforcement steel before visible damage occurs.

By measuring electrical potentials on the concrete surface, we can identify areas with active or likely corrosion, making it easier to plan preventive or corrective actions.

The Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity test uses sound waves to detect internal flaws, cracks, and uniformity in concrete. It’s a completely non-invasive technique that gives us insights into the internal condition of the structure.

This test is ideal for both pre-repair evaluation and post-repair quality checks, especially when structural safety is on the line.

The Rebound Hammer test is a rapid, non-destructive way to assess surface hardness and uniformity of concrete. It provides an indicative value of compressive strength, especially useful for on-site, large-scale testing.
